Do I Ever Cross Your Mind?

“When you remember me, it means that you
have carried something of who I am
with you, that I have left some mark of who I am on who you are. It means
that you
can summon me back to your mind even though countless years and miles may
stand
between us. It means that if we meet again, you will know me.”

November 08, 1942 - French resistance coup in Algiers, in which 400
civilian French patriots neutralized Vichyist XIXth Army Corps after 15 hours of
fighting, and arrest several Vichyst generals, allowing the immediate success of
Operation Torch in Algiers.

November 08, 1986 - Vyacheslav M. Molotov died at age 96. During World War II,
Molotov ordered the mass production of bottles filled with flammable liquid
later called the "Molotov cocktail."

THIS DAY IN 1968:

Thursday, November 08, 1968 - The
Vienna Convention on Road Traffic was signed to facilitate
international road traffic and to increase road safety by standardising
the uniform traffic rules among the signatories.

“The spirit of
gratitude is always pleasant and satisfying because it carries with it a
sense of helpfulness to others; it begets love and friendship, and
engenders divine influence. Gratitude is said to be the memory of the
heart.”

Good morning. I call this morning
Political Hangover Lack of Sleep Hump Day.

I confess I am a junkie when it comes to election results for a big
election. I'm happy with some results, not so much with others, but now
it's time for people to try and come together where they can find common
ground for the sake of America. If we can't do that, then it's probably
best to just stay quiet because chaos and anger never solved anything.

Remember, regardless of what happened and how you feel, the
sun comes up this morning like every other morning. So,
rejoice in the beauty of God's nature and don't worry about
the things you can't change. We have enough issues, each of
us does, to spend our time dealing with those we can
honestly do something about.

Have a blessed day for every day we
wake up is a blessing. Be you on the sea, in the mountains
or anywhere in between, God's wonders are there to remind us
of His love and presence in a world that will be as
beautiful as we make it in our hearts.

"A Scout should be prepared, a Marine should be Semper Fidelis, and a
G-Man should be dedicated to Fidelity, Bravery and Integrity, but only
trust in the guidance of GOD can insure that each performs accordingly."

My Niece, Shari, of VA

10/31/18 - "Statistics (#8 in a series of 18)":

These
numbers are based on a single day. The one that may not be clear is the 5000 -
an estimate of how many steps the average person takes in a day. I don't know if
anyone else will find these of interest, or as much as I do, but one thing that
stood out to me is the imbalance in the numbers. Our dependence on technology is
clear. It is certainly a blessing in many ways; just hope it does not make life
more isolating.

WOW!
Thank you, Shari!

prosciutto gives these green beans a wonderful salty flavor and a delicious
crunch. Garlic and olive oil really bring out the veggies' natural tastes while
Parmesan cheese adds a subtle nuttiness to the whole dish. You can pair this
